Abstract
Most maize yield variations are explained by changes in the number of established kernels. Kernel number is, in turn, highly dependent upon ear biomass accumulation around flowering. Both are quantitative traits highly influenced by the environment. Determining the genetic basis of quantitative traits is complex because of usual genetic × environment interactions (GxE). Crop physiology models are proposed to help overcome this problem, as they...
